Codec and gamma and general camera settings

PostFri Apr 19, 2024 8:10 am

Hey guys , I just post this maybe for some suggestions ?

Since I don’t have yet the money to invest in proper camera for my videos , I shot now with my iPhone 15pro max I already had before staring videos and the Blackmagic camera app .

Any suggestions about the settings I can use for better results ?
I m currently struggling to work out with the tutorials I find in YouTube regarding colour grading or masking in general , because of my original shots .
Thank you !

I once heard a YouTuber comment that the worst way to learn Resolve is from YouTubers.

There is no big difference. Record in ProRes as Apple Log und use the right CST.
RCM will recognize it. If you don't understand these terms, it's high time to cover the training.
Now that the cat #19 is out of the bag, test it as much as you can and use the subforum.
